紅石燕
美洲崖燕(Petrochelidon pyrrhonota)在IUCN红色名录中被评估为无危(LC),在北美洲广泛繁殖,以集群在悬崖面和建筑物上筑泥质壶状巢为独特行为。该物种是著名的长距离迁徙鸟类,每年往返于北美繁殖地和南美洲越冬地之间。其高超的飞行技巧和集群繁殖策略是对开阔生境的完美适应。
giraffe
长颈鹿(Giraffa camelopardalis)是地球上最高的动物,身高可达5.5米,体重最重可达1,750千克。其细长的颈部——与所有哺乳动物一样包含七块颈椎——是为了在非洲稀树草原和林地取食金合欢树而进化的。长颈鹿是社会性动物,生活在无固定纽带的松散兽群中,通过次声波和肢体语言进行交流。由于栖息地丧失和偷猎,种群持续减少,被列为易危。
